Seems like the ID thread is one of the most populars ones here in Africans so i thought i'd contribute

unknown that was in a tank w/ like 4 others....gave the kid hell tryin to fish him out. lol

was in the big assorted tank where i got 5 of my fish from...there's a 2nd one that doesn't have as much color, but looks similar

i figure these are a pair of females who happen to not be a brownish color

idk what they are but it cant be good that their stomachs are sunk in

They were probably starving

the 1st & 2nd pic i think is a tropheus ( not sure what 1 tho)
3rd looka to me like a yellow lab hybrid. but im not sure because i sin a huge 1 of these bout 8" so im not sure
and the last pics look like a female metriaclima estherae (red zebra)

 

[fishticuffs]

they have some kind of parasite it looks like if you are feeding them any way- they look way to skinny for cichlids

 

[fishticuffs]

i also dont aggree on the trophius call-not a atthority on africans, but not a troph in my opinion

Treat for parasites. None of the fish above are tropheus. They are all mbuna species. The last one looks to be a red zebra Metriaclima estherae. The others look like hybrids.

ya i think there was at least 1 male red zebra in that tank.

parasites? ugh! how do i treat them? well the tetracyclene i got help?

plan on doing 3 a day feedings now to get their weight up.
